Anybody using Scanopy (formerly NetVisor)?
My experiment of the day today was installing Scanopy (formerly NetVisor) on Proxmox as an LXC (from helper-scripts) for testing. It takes a little configuring, but it's a pretty interesting service. The initial scan of my network has not finished yet, but I did export a preliminary diagram. So much easier than manually crafting diagrams.

I really got the timing right on this one. I mention the tool and we get a full article! LOL!
Using Bottles in Linux
Has anyone used Bottles in Linux for running Windows applications, What do you think? https://usebottles.com/

I'd be interested in trying this on a Linux VM just to see if I can coax a couple specialized Windows apps to run. Not so much for home use, but for my day job, to allow me to switch my desktop machine to Linux, and avoid a few Windows quirks that annoy me. Edit: I should have added to the original message that there are other great options as well such as WinBoat that I have yet to try. WinBoat uses the approach of running Windows in Docker, but abstracts away the Windows interface to show the applications directly on the Linux desktop. https://github.com/TibixDev/winboat

I think PatchMon looks interesting. I will have to test it out and see how it compares to the recently introduced Linux support in Action1. I do like that Action1 allows me to patch Linux, macOS and Windows all from a single interface. That being said, it's still early days for their Linux support, and I'm already seeing places I want to watch and potentially make suggestions for improvements in the future.
PoE Lighting
As I prepare for 2026 as a technology enthusiast and YouTube content creator, I have been looking at projects that don't require the purchase of memory or a GPU. I am planning to spend more time reviewing software and doing network-related projects. One technology that I've been interested in for a while is PoE lighting. I found a kit on Amazon that is reasonably priced. Has anyone else looked into PoE lighting? Maybe you're using it already, and have some tips to share. I just thought it would be interesting.
